High Noon at The Tropic of Capricorn

We don’t get magical second chances
sentient being
but we get a shot anew nonetheless
if we ever meet dawn again
after what never really feels like rest
and
We don’t have more daylight than we need
human being
and yet
we never have enough
even when
it feels like
there just might be too much
exposure
undeserving and steadily hoping for yet
another spring
If you love it will you still
cosmic being
when you can’t see it anymore in the dark?
